I know God has called me here to be prepared, equipped and to be used by Him.  I have to be ready and expect change to come because change is part of life.

I’ve learned to constantly keep my heart open and to grow everyday in the things of God.  I have learned to deal with unmet expectations by keeping my eyes on the Lord at all times.  If I don’t I will get in the flesh and that will affect my attitude.

I  used to let little things really bother me but now instead of holding on to them for a long time, I’ve learned to quickly give it to the Lord, because his timing is perfect.  This is how much the Lord had changed me because in the past, if I expected something or it was promised to me and didn’t happen I would get very offended and hurt for a long time but not anymore thank God!!

Choosing internship was the best decision I could have ever made.  Each year I find myself with a greater desire and longing to know the plan and purpose that God has for my life. The Holy Spirit is revealing to me that God desires a closer walk and relationship with Him.  It’s always important to find a few minutes during the day just to spend quiet time with God.  Internship is about a lot of things:  letting God do what He needs to do in and through me, allowing God to burn out anything that is not of Him, learning how to die to my flesh in all areas, become willing and obedient to immediately follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and most importantly to focus on the direction God is leading me.  I believe this is going to be the best year yet.  I’m so excited to be here at The River Bible Institute.
